Spring Picture Day
Your child will be bringing home an order envelope today (2/24). You can put payment in the envelope and have your child bring it with them on March 3rd to give to the photographer. If you put cash in the envelope it needs to be the correct amount, the school does not give change.
The most convenient way to pay is online at Strawbridge.net. The schools code is: FM384477. If you pay online, please write down the confirmation # and send a note with your student to give to the photographer.
Only students who have a payment envelope in hand or an on-line confirmation code will be the only students photographed on picture day.
